**Appendix 3** – Listed Building Description NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY

This report presents the results of a programme of historic building recording of two outbuildings at Raikes Farm, Mill Lane, Sheen, Staffordshire, situated at National Grid Reference SK 11851 59715.

The record comprises a photographic survey and was undertaken to address a condition of planning permission for the conversion of the building to domestic use.

Raikes Farm comprises an early 19th Century farmstead with the buildings where alterations are proposed (Buildings 1 and 2) comprising additions of the second half of the 19th Century. These buildings formed part of a period of gradual expansion of the farm, adding a new combined cart house, cowhouse and fodder store (Building 1) and calf house (Building 2).

The farmhouse is Grade II Listed, comprising a nationally important building of special architectural and historical interest. Buildings 1 and 2 contribute positively to the significance of the farmstead but are intrinsically of lower significance as they date to a period when such buildings were increasingly common and are not special examples of their type. Nonetheless, their vernacular character is of architectural merit and the relatively complete condition of the farmstead is of historical interest, upon which basis they are considered to possess regional heritage significance.

The proposals seek to refurbish Buildings 1 and 2, conserving the structures and making limited considerate changes to bring them into domestic use. Also proposed is the demolition of an existing lean-to on the east elevation of Building 1, with the proposed replacement of a high-quality modern structure which will maintain the legibility of the historic structures whilst not detracting from their significance.

It is considered that the proposed scheme of works to the barns at Raikes Farm will lead to the conservation of the existing structures, preserving their significance and the contribution they make to the setting of the Grade II Listed farmhouse. The overarching design philosophy has sought to avoid and minimise harm and seeks to balance residual harm against securing a use that is appropriate to the building’s long-term conservation. INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND

This report presents the results of a programme of historic building recording of two outbuildings at Raikes Farm, Mill Lane, Sheen, Staffordshire, situated at National Grid Reference SK 11851 59715 (Figure 1).

The record comprises a photographic survey and was undertaken in accordance with an approved Written Scheme of Investigation (TJC Heritage, 2019) prepared to address a condition of planning permission for the conversion of the building to domestic use (Peak District National Park Authority planning reference: NP/SM/1018/0965 – condition No.4)

AIMS

This programme of building recording has been designed to provide a photographic record of the current character of the barns at Raikes Farm prior to conversion. In addition to this new element of recording, the report also reproduces the historic background and analysis of the structures produced as part of a previous heritage statement (TJC Heritage, 2018).

DISSEMINATION

Copies of this report will be distributed to the Client, the Staffordshire Historic Environment Record, and the Peak District National Park Historic Buildings, Sites and Monuments Record. In addition a digital copy will be uploaded to the OASIS (Online Access to the Index of archaeological investigations) with the reference number: thejesso1-367698.

The project archive, including all record photography and a copy of the report, will be deposited with Staffordshire Archives.

DESIGNATION(S)

Raikes Farmhouse is Grade II Listed (NHLE ref: 1252613). The full listing description is included in Appendix 3. Figure 1: Site location showing designated heritage assets 2 SITE LOCATION

SITE LOCATION

Raikes Farm is located on the northern side of Mill Lane, west of the River Dove which forms the border between Staffordshire and Derbyshire. The topography of the site slopes from the north-west towards the south-east, forming the valley of the River Dove, with the site possessing views south across low lying farmland towards where the Dove cuts a narrow passage between Wolfscoate Hill and Gratton Hill.

The farm comprises a rectangular farmhouse, situated parallel to the road beyond a lawn, with a small yard to its southwest delineated by a small single storey outbuilding to the north (Building 1), and a two-storey building to the west (Building 2). A separate detached barn to the south of the road formerly formed part of the farm but is now in separate ownership.

Both Building 1 and Building 2 were disused but structurally sound at time of survey.

GEOLOGY

The soil at the site, and within its immediate vicinity, is classified as slowly permeable seasonally wet acid loamy and clayey soils mostly seasonally wet pastures and woodland suitable for growing grassland for cattle (Cranfield University, 2018). The 1939 Land Utilisation Survey of Britain records the land around Raikes Farm as meadowland and permanent grass (Vision of Britain).

The bedrock geology of the site is mudstone, siltstone and sandstone of the Bowland Shale Formation, formed approximately 319 to 337 million years ago (British Geological Survey, 2018).

HISTORIC LANDSCAPE CHARACTER

The landscape surrounding Raikes farm comprises a combination of typically large straight edged enclosures indicative of surveyed enclosure of the 18th or early 19th Century, and more irregular enclosures with dog-legged or slightly curvilinear boundaries suggestive of earlier piecemeal enclosure. There is no parliamentary enclosure of land in the Parish of Sheen, within which the site is located, indicating that this enclosure was carried out on a private basis. Curvilinear, narrow, enclosures east of the Dove lie across the county boundary in Derbyshire and most likely reflect the extent of a medieval open field agricultural system surrounding Hartington. The nearest ancient settlement in Staffordshire is the village of Sheen, 1.7km to the north. To the south is an area of landscaped grounds associated with Beresford Hall. The hall dates to the 16th Century but may have been emparked during the 18th or 19th Century.

The land surrounding Raikes Farm most likely lay in an area of unimproved and unenclosed moorland and seasonal wetlands situated on the periphery of the Parish of Sheen prior to its enclosure in the early 19th Century. Whereupon it was enclosed into regular fields and divided between newly formed dispersed farmsteads such as Raikes Farm. 3 METHODOLOGY

STANDARDS

The project has been undertaken in accordance with best practice guidelines as set out by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA 2014a & 2014b); and Historic England (2016). The overall recording strategy was designed to be compliant with a Level 2 (descriptive) record established by Historic England (2016).

PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORD

The photographic record comprised:

1. General views of the building in its wider setting (HE 2016, photography item 1);
2. The building’s external appearance (HE 2016, photography item 2);
3. Further views to reflect the original design intentions of the builder or architect (HE 2016, photography item 3);
4. The overall appearance of the principal rooms and circulation areas (HE 2016, photography item 4);
5. Any external or internal detail, structural or decorative (HE 2016, photography item 5);
6. Any dates, signage, graffiti, makers plates etc. within areas where works are proposed (HE 2016, photography item 7).
7. A plan or plans identifying the location and direction of accompanying photographs (HE 2016, drawn record item 8).

DOCUMENTARY RESEARCH AND MEASURED SURVEY

This report reproduces a historical description of the building and annotated floor plans originally prepared as part of a Heritage Statement supporting an application for conversion of the buildings at the site (TJC Heritage, 2019). HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT

HISTORICAL BASELINE

Sheen was first recorded in 1003 in an endowment to Burton Abbey, and again in the Domesday Survey of 1086, appearing as Sceon. This place-name derives from the Old English word sceon meaning 'sheds or shelters' (Mills, 2010). A second settlement had formed in the south-east of the parish by the 17th Century, most likely around Beresford Manor to the south of the site. A farm is also recorded at Raikes by 1651 (Currie et al., 1996: 239-50), although its exact location is not known.

The road between Warslow and Hartington was turnpiked in 1770, until then having passed further to the south through Alstonfield township. This new road crossed the Dove and passed north of Raikes Farm, possibly replacing or extending earlier lanes with records of Hartington Bridge, over which the road passes, dating back to 1620 (Currie et al., 1996: 239-50). The alignment of the road was changed to pass to the south of Raikes Farm in c. 1850.

Raikes Farm appears on a plan of the parish of Sheen produced for the calculation of tithes in 1847 (Appendix 1.1), illustrating a single linear range on the site of the existing house (no. 862 on the plan). The farm is shown situated within a large irregular enclosure (no. 864), although it is possible that the adjacent closes around the farm may not have been fully surveyed beyond a single separate square enclosure shown to the south (no. 863). The earlier course of the Warslow-Hartington road is also shown passing to the north of the farm. The apportionment accompanying the plan lists the details of the above plots, and identifies the extent of the land occupied by the same tenant:

| No. | Owner | Tenant | Name of Piece | Use | |-----|---------------------|-------------------|---------------|-------| | 862 | Viscount Beresford | Edmund Wooddesse | Homestead | - | | 863 | Viscount Beresford | Edmund Wooddesse | Homestead | - | | 864 | Viscount Beresford | Edmund Wooddesse | Green | Pasture | | 870 | Viscount Beresford | Edmund Wooddesse | Lime piece | Pasture | | 871 | Viscount Beresford | Edmund Wooddesse | Farfield | Pasture |

From the 1851 Census a property known as the “Rakes” is listed under two entries, potentially relating to the present Raikes Farm and Little Raikes, both of which appear on the 1847 Tithe map. The 1871 Census differentiates the two properties as “Rakes” and “Rakes House”, with Rakes House associated with the larger landholding (70 acres, in comparison to 26 acres for the “Rakes”) and the larger household. It has not been possible to ascertain with certainty which property was which, although on the basis of size alone it is likely that Raikes Farm was associated with the larger household (the family associated with the largest household and landholding is marked with an [\*] in the paragraph below).

In 1851 these residences were occupied by the Bainbridge family\* (Job Bainbridge listed as farmer) and the Bennit family (Matthew Bennit listed as agricultural labourer). Over the following decades the occupants changed relatively frequently, with the Raikes occupied by the Austin and Woodise\* families in 1861 and 1871, the Austin and Goodwin\* families in 1881, and the Cotton\* and Gibbs families in 1891. Throughout this period the occupants’ principal occupation is recorded as farmer.

The 1880 Ordnance Survey (OS) map illustrates the site in detail (Appendix 1.2), showing the main house with extensions to its northern side, a detached building to the southwest (Building 2), and a detached rectangular building to the south of Mill Lane (the barn). Differences in the style of construction between the barn on Mill Lane and Building 1, suggest that they were not undertaken at the same time, with Building 1 stylistically appearing the later of the two. By the production of the 1891 OS map (Appendix 1.3) a new short range is shown to the west of the house (Building 2), and a narrow enclosure is shown to the north of Building 1.

The 1901 Census records the Gibbs family still resident at Rakes (listed as a farmer) with the other resident Walter Woolley, a farmer and wheelwright, and his brother John, a wheelwright. Kelly’s trade directory for 1896 also lists a Joshua Woolley as wheelwright in the parish of Sheen. That a wheelwright was based at Raikes Farm is information that has been passed down by previous owners (Mr Hawton, pers. comm.). No reference to a wheelwright was found against any of the known occupants of the Rakes in an 1870 directory, providing a suggested start date for this business between 1870 and 1896 which would coincide with the depiction of the narrow enclosure north of Building 1 on the 1891 OS map which could have been a saw pit.

By the 1911 Census, Raikes appears under one entry, occupied by the Broomhead family. This entry provides some additional information on the activities as the farm, with Ellen Broomhead recorded as working in the dairy.

Later Ordnance Survey maps illustrate a few changes occurred at the site during the later 20th Century, including the addition of an extension onto the eastern side of Building 1 on the 1972 OS (Appendix 1.5). No further changes to the plan form of the farm have been undertaken, although alterations have occurred internally including the conversion of the western end of the farmhouse (formerly a stables) to accommodation in around 1987. DESCRIPTION OF RAIKES FARM BARNs

INTRODUCTION

The following section presents a description of the phased development of the barns and a discussion regarding archaeological features that survive within the built fabric. Floor plans showing the phasing is presented as Figure 2. Rooms are referred to by an applied numbering scheme for ease of reference, which are also shown on Figures 2-3.

The photographic record is reproduced as Appendix 2, with a scaled site plan included as Figure 3.

PHASED DEVELOPMENT

The building appraisal identified three principal phases of alteration at Raikes Farm which have been attributed to the following periods:

- **Phase 1: 1850-1880**

  - Construction of Building 1

- **Phase 2: 1880-1898**

  - Construction of Building 2 & Conversion of Building 1

- **Phase 3: 1922-1975**

  - Extension of Building 1

**Phase 1: 1850-1880**

The construction of Building 1 to the south-west of the main farmhouse occurred between the production of the 1847 Tithe map and 1880 OS map. The building was possibly built as a combination barn but was converted to a workshop for a wheelwright when the property was acquired by the Woolley family between 1891 and 1901. The east and south elevations of the building are built with more finely dressed stone, indicating that it was intended to be viewed from the southeast and therefore suggesting it was constructed following the realignment of Mill Lane from the north to the south of the farm.

**Phase 2: 1880-1898**

Building 2 was constructed between the production of the 1880 and 1898 OS maps, comprising a small cow house or dairy.

During this period Building 1 was converted to a wheelwright’s workshop, potentially changing the use of the ground floor northern room and first floor loft. No diagnostic fixtures or fittings remains from the workshop machinery, although a heavy degree of wear to the first floor is illustrative of where activities would have taken place. Phase 3: 1922-1975

A single-storey lean-to extension was made to the side of Building 1 during this period, with structural evidence suggesting it may have been built in stone and then partially rebuilt at a later date in wood and blockwork.

Building 1 went out of use as a cow house towards the beginning of this phase, or just before, and was converted to a workshop or store.

Figure 2: Floor plan of Buildings 1 and 2 showing phasing BUILDING 1

Building 1 has evidently seen a number of uses in its past, potentially built between 1850 and 1880 as a combination barn with four stalls for livestock, cart shed and first floor hay-loft, granary or garret. Whilst it is possible that the stalls were used for draft horses, the lack of windows into this room is more typical of cow houses (Brunskill, 2007). Whether the window into the southern and eastern first-floor windows are original or inserted into pitching holes is uncertain, although the windows in the west elevation are certainly insertions of the early to mid 20th Century. The later use of the building as a workshop is evidenced by the insertion of additional windows and the degree of scars in the floor and walls that likely relate plant and heavy use.

Exterior

The building is a two-storey structure built of sandstone with half hipped blue slate roof. The southern and eastern elevations are of square dressed stone laid to regular courses, whilst the northern and western elevations are rubble built. Finely dressed sandstone ashlar blocks form quoins and the frames to the first phase windows and doors within the building. Within the south elevation is a central board and batten door at ground floor with strap hinges, and small multi-paned timber framed casement window at first floor level. Disused iron pintles beside the door indicate it had originally had a stable door. East elevation has a double door at its northern end with early 20th Century garage doors, and first-floor window identical to that of the south elevation. The north elevation has an external staircase running up it to a first-floor doorway with board and batten door. There is evidence within the stonework forming the stairs for an under-stair cupboard with north facing door. The western elevation has a row of three blocked ventilation slots at ground floor level, with two inserted wide rectangular windows at first floor with vertical strip glazing of an early to mid-20th Century design.

Abutting the east elevation is a single storey lean-to with rounded rubble-built wall to north, blockwork wall to south and timber panelled wall to east. The roof is of corrugated metal sheet. Internally the lean-to forms a single space. There are two blocked ventilation slots evident in the eastern wall of the barn.

Interior

The interior of the ground floor is divided into two rooms, comprising a garage to the north (G1) and small cow house to the south (G2). G1 has concrete floor, and bare stone walls. There are two recessed storage holes in the north wall and a low stone shelf in the southeast corner below a blocked ventilation slot. G2 has setts with raised concrete stalls against the east and west walls. Floor scars indicate that the stalls were subdivided, whilst evidence for hay racks and troughs is evident against the head of either pair of stalls. An interconnecting doorway with board and batten door between the two rooms is an insertion.

The interior of the first floor comprises a single open space (F1), with timber boarded floor of machine sawn timbers, and lime plastered and painted walls. There are numerous scars in the floor indicating patched repairs and removed plant between floors. The presence of inserted timbers in the walls and other scars most likely correspond to removed plant or shelving. The ceiling is now open to the rafters, although the extent of wall plastering indicates a ceiling would have been present. Exposed is a single joggled king post truss of machine sawn timbers with bolted joints and clasped purlins.

BUILDING 2

As with Building 1, Building 2 has evidently seen a number of uses in its past, potentially built between 1880 and 1898 as small loose boxes for small livestock with a first floor hay-loft. It was most likely built to accommodate calves, but there is some oral evidence that it may have housed donkeys used to turn a gin to power machinery in the wheelwrights (Mr Hawton pers. comm). No evidence has been identified for a gin, or for power transmission into the barn, however this does not necessarily exclude this interpretation. The building was then converted to a store or workshop, possibly in the early 20th Century. Evidence for possible heating apparatus would fit with the later use of the barns on the site by a wheelwright as iron tyres needed to be heated to expand them prior to fitting them.

Exterior

Building 2 is a single storey structure built of sandstone with pitched blue slate roof. The southern elevation is of squared stone laid to regular courses, whilst the other elevations are rubble built. Finely dressed sandstone ashlar blocks form quoins and the frames to the windows and doors within the building. Along eaves level is a dressed stone cornice. The south elevation is divided into three bays, originally comprising three evenly spaced doors, the central one of which has been partially blocked with a multi-pane timber framed window inserted. The east elevation is blind with the exception of three terracotta pipes in the top of the gable forming ventilation. The northern elevation has two ventilation slots comprising decorative double-bulb loopholes cut through single sandstone blocks. At eaves level on the north elevation are two terracotta ventilation pipes, whilst lower in the wall, towards its western side, is an inserted salt-glaze stoneware pipe which possibly formed part of a flue for heating apparatus internally. The west elevation has a single upper level window with inserted multi-paned timber frame with top casement. Iron pintles and a latch hook indicate the opening was previously fitted with a shutter.

**Interior**

The interior of the building comprises a single space (G1), with flagstone floor incorporating a slight step laterally along the centre of the room, and rubble-built walls faced at ground floor level with lime plaster. Part of a timber floor survives within the eastern end of the room, with former joist holes indicating it had originally continued the full length, probably forming a hay loft. There is evidence for removed stalls which would have divided the building into three stalls, matching the doors in the south elevation. An inserted brick-built structure in the northwest corner of the room may form the remains of a furnace structure, corresponding to the salt glaze pipe flue through the north elevation.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

Historical and Archaeological Interest

The range of buildings at Raikes Farm illustrate the phased development of a post-medieval farmstead from a highly traditional linear-plan farmstead, that remains the dominant form of historic farms in the Peak District, towards a loose courtyard plan that reflected 19th Century developments in farming (PDNPA, 2017: 19). Within this group, Buildings 1 and 2 correspond to the later development of the farm in adding improved facilities during the latter half of the 19th Century including a cart house, additional cow house, calf house, and storage for fodder. The use of these buildings in their intended function was relatively short lived, as they were converted to use by a wheelwright around the turn of the century.

The plan of the present farm has a clear distinction between the house and domestic gardens and the working yard and agricultural buildings, which relays some evidence of how the farm operated in the later 19th Century. Buildings 1 and 2 back on to the fields, with a former pitching hole in the west elevation of Building 2 illustrating how hay from the fields could be brought directly into the building. The legibility of the relationship between Building 1 and the yard has been adversely affected to a small degree by the addition of the single-storey lean-to which obscures the building. The operation of the original linear-plan farmstead is less legible owing to its evident piecemeal conversion to residential space.

Although the cattle accommodation in both buildings lacks the improvements brought in by the improved hygiene regulations of the mid-20th Century, very little survives of their original furniture beyond scars in the walls and floors. This archaeological evidence suggests the layout of the spaces was typical of their period.

Architectural and Artistic Interest

The buildings at Raikes Farm are built of local materials and of traditional forms which are reflective of the regional geology and vernacular building traditions of the late 18th to mid-19th Century. Whilst the doors and windows within the building are later additions, relating to the conversion of the buildings to workshops, they possess a historic character and do not adversely affect the architectural interest of the building. The buildings at Raikes Farm have been purposefully designed and orientated in respect to the natural topography and location of the main road in order to make the most of views along the Dove Valley and to present a fair face to passers-by. The vernacular character of the buildings, utilising local materials in traditional forms, firmly establishes them in their setting which enhances the artistic qualities of the surrounding natural and human shaped landscape.

CONCLUSION

At its core, Raikes Farm comprises an early 19th Century linear-plan farmstead with the buildings where alterations are proposed (Buildings 1 and 2) comprising additions of the second half of the 19th Century. These new buildings formed part of a period of gradual expansion of the farm, adding a new combined cart house, cowhouse and fodder store (Building 1) and calf or donkey house (Building 2).

The farmhouse is Grade II Listed, comprising a nationally important building of special architectural and historical interest. Buildings 1 and 2 contribute positively to the significance of the Grade II Listed Raikes Farmhouse but are intrinsically of lower significance as they date to a period when such buildings were increasingly common and are not special examples of their type.

Nonetheless, their vernacular character is of architectural merit and the relatively complete condition of the farmstead is of historical interest, upon which basis they are considered to possess regional heritage significance. 7 SUPPORTING INFORMATION
